Marvel : Nightwing

SHIELD Test : Part 1 Captain America

Midtown High

POV : Nightwing

Since Felicia and I have been spending more time with each other, we have gathered the attention of our people around us. If looks can kill, the guys that have been staring at me have killed me many times over while the girls are also doing the same to Felicia. As we flirted with each other in school, I swore we could hear some of the guys cracking the knuckles and grinding their teeth in frustration.

Peter seems to be more nervous and clumsy around MJ as he tries to encourage himself to ask her out on a date. I have a tiny suspicion that MJ knows what he is up too, as she can be seen smirking slightly as Peter is anxious to try to ask her out. MJ has been teasing Peter with a lot of flirty hints that all of us notice except him. Ned is too busy preparing for our trip to the Stark Expo as he waited excitedly for the Opening Ceremony.

As class ended Oracle called "Nightwing, Fury wants me to inform you that the appointment to settle the bet will be tomorrow night 10pm at the Coulson's SHIELD building rooftop".

...

Coulson's SHIELD Building's rooftop

While everyone is waiting for Nightwing on top of the building, Agent Coulson can't seem to help himself from glancing at Steve Rogers who is standing beside Nick Fury. Coulson is more than happy to meet his favorite hero, Steve Rogers aka Captain America who has always been a role model for him.

Nervously Coulson approaches Steve, Coulson cleared his throat before saying "I gotta say, it's an honor to meet you, officially. I sort of met you, I mean, I watched you while you were sleeping. I mean, I was... I was present while you were unconscious from the ice. You know, it's really, it's just a... just a huge honor to have you back".

Fury rolled his eye at Coulson's words as he wondered how delighted Romanoff would have been to see how Coulson embarrasses himself in front of his hero.

"Well, I hope I'm the man for the job" Steve replied feeling slightly awkward to hear Coulson's statement.

As Fury wanted to reply, Coulson quickly interrupted "Oh, you are. Absolutely".

Fury cleared his throat before saying "You don't have to win the fight, you just need to show Nightwing that joining SHIELD will be more beneficial for him. You have more experience and skills that might help give him a run for his money".

"I hope you like your uniform, I had a little design input. Basically everything is nearly the same except it is a bit darker and with better protective armor" Coulson excitedly said proudly as he ignored Fury who is glaring at him.

At the other end of the rooftop Skye whispered excitedly to Jemma Simmons "I can't believe we will be seeing Nightwing, I wonder will he remember me! and Captain America looks exactly the same as he was during the war. I wonder what his secret is!"

"Shh!! Not so loud! If you have read his file, it is because he is frozen in ice and the super soldier serum could have played a part. Normal humans would not have been able to come back to live after being frozen in ice for 70 years. This would be a huge breakthrough in cryogenic research" Jemma Simmons replied excitedly.

''Fine' is not the appropriate word to describe your state!" Jemma countered immediately, checking her wounds. "You've been shot twice, had your stomach perforated and a breathing tube shoved down your throat. 'Better' is the more accurate word and that's only because anything is 'better' than the state you were in!'"
